Ceragon Networks reported Q2 2026 results showing higher sales but weaker profitability.

GAAP gross margin was 31.7%, down from 34.6% a year earlier, reflecting cost and supply-chain pressures. GAAP operating income was $0.2 million versus $2.2 million, and Ceragon posted a GAAP net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, compared with a $1.3 million loss, or $0.01 per share, in Q2 2025. On a non-GAAP basis, operating income was $4.0 million and net income was $1.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted share.
